'South Side' Is Back For A Second Season On HBO Max

The hit comedy, South Side, has officially returned with new episodes on HBO Max.


The hit comedy South Side is here to entertain us once again.

For those who haven't yet watched the first season, the show follows two "adventure capitalists" that work in the rent-to-own furniture business on the south side of Chicago.

"It is a love letter to not just the southside of Chicago, but south central Los Angeles, the south Bronx, south Philly, southwest Atlanta..."

Co-star and co-creator Diallo Riddle has come a long way since the days he worked as a writer for Jimmy Fallon. Riddle and his creative partner, Bashir Salahuddin, have written and co-created segments such as "slow jam the news," (famously performed once by former President Barack Obama).

"It's been a long time coming, but we are so happy to finally present not just season one, but season two of this show," Riddle said.

Both seasons of South Side are now streaming on HBO Max.

Born and raised in Atlanta, Emmy-nominee Diallo attended Harvard University, majoring in History. While in school, he picked up side gigs as a DJ, with it later becoming a second career.

In addition to South Side, Diallo and Bashir also created, wrote and star in AMC/IFC's Emmy Award-winning scripted musical variety/sketch comedy Sherman's Showcase.

Sherman's Showcase will return for season two in 2022.
